Wolves vs Chelsea lineups, expected starting eleven, team news

While the Wolves hope Aaron Ramsdale from Arsenal, that still has to be done and Jose Sa will start in goal.

Daniel Podence And Matheus Cunha were only fit enough to sit on the bench at the Emirates, but could now be there from the start.

Expected Wolves formation (4-4-2 from right to left): Sa (GK) – Doherty, Mosquera, Toti, Ait-Nouri – Bellegarde, Lemina, Joao Gomes, Podence – Hwang, Cunha.

Injured: Daniel Podence, Leon Chiwone, Enso Gonzalez, Sasa Kalajdzic

Exposed: Nelson Semedo

After a pretty bad start against City between the posts for Robert Sancheznew goalkeeper Philipp Jorgensen could come in and start.

It feels like it would be better to use a random number generator to determine Chelsea’s starting XI this season with even more new signings, but the classics like Cole Palmer, Enzo Fernandez And Marc Cucurella everything should start.

The club’s captain, Reece James, remains injured and is suspended for this game.

Chelsea’s expected score (line-up, from right to left): Jorgensen (TW) – Gusto, Badiashile, Veiga, Cucurella – Fernandez, Lavia – Palmer, Dewsbury-Hall, Neto – Jackson.

Injured: Reece James

Prediction for Wolves vs Chelsea

Chelsea are seeking their first win of the Enzo Maresca era but do not have the best record against Wolves, having not won a game at Molineux since 2019.

Given their previous record and fighting spirit in the second half against Arsenal, Wolves are predicted to score a narrow victory.

Forecast: Wolves – Chelsea 2:1
